I completed a PhD in the Physics Department at Purdue University. During my time there, I:• Led a small technical team in designing, developing and testing a table-top research apparatus (utilizing 250+ mechanical, electrical, optical and RF components) that produces and analyzes 3 samples/minute of Bose-Einstein Condensates made of Rubidium• Developed LabVIEW program to utilize 9+ different networked devices (including stepper motor, mechanical shutter, RF VCO and VCA’s, analog and digital circuits, CCD camera, lasers, and variable waveform generators) that can run hands-free for >12 hours/day. • Improved data collection speed by 20% through identifying and fixing error in off-the-shelf driver code.• Doubled the total production efficiency of apparatus by researching physics of ultracold gas evaporation. • Presented at 8 conferences, and published 3 papers in the leading journal for my field.
